Convert WordStar to Markdown for Docs-as-Code

What you get

Print-control emphasis becomes Markdown emphasis. Wrap flags become ordinary line breaks. The result is reviewable in a pull request.

Why Markdown beats a TXT dump

Plain text strips structure. Markdown keeps bold, underline-as-emphasis, and heading cues that static-site generators and docs pipelines already understand. Diff tools show real edits instead of wrap-flag noise.

Batch into a docs repo

Point WordStar Converter at the archive, choose Markdown (optionally alongside DOCX or PDF), and write into a clean output tree. Commit the Markdown; keep the `.ws` originals in cold storage as provenance.

Trial 10 files locally. Standard is $39.95 one-time when the folder is larger than a sample set.

Pair with RAG or human editing

The same Markdown feed works for local RAG chunking and for writers who prefer Git over Word. You do not need two conversion passes — one native parse, multiple destinations.
